I have gotten around the conflict by removing the rpm and then 
reinstalling it.  I did like the kmod version of the nvidia driver but 
have not had success with the akmod version so back to the regular module.

Are both modules coming from rpmfusion?  Just curious because I cannot 
see a problem if they are coming from the same repository.  I ask this 
as I have not had any issues with the nvidia driver lately.
